So, there's a spell called greater status (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/divine/spells/statusGreater.htm). In a nutshell, it lets you use touch buffs of up to 2nd level at unlimited range. This seems like it has the potential to be very useful - a team buffer could perform his role while out of harm's way entirely, or sell his services on the side and make a bit of extra income.
So this thread is basically looking for two things: good spells for greater status and ways to get around its pesky restrictions. The most important ones are:
Breaking the 2nd level spells cap
Using non-touch range spells
Getting a better idea of the situation than the spell itself provides
Abusing Sanctum Spell helps a bit, since it lets you downgrade 3rd level spells to 2nd level ones. Being able to snag spells of a lower level than usual off of other lists seems like a good approach for an Archivist with greater status to take. There might be some ways of turning non-touch spells into touch ones, too.
